How was your first kiss like?
When I was young, after watching so many Disney movies,
i imagined my first kiss to be magical,
i imagined it to be with prince charming.


My mum used to watch Days of Our Lives on channel 5.
Everytime there was a kissing scene, my mum would ask me to close my eyes.
But i would sneakily peep to see the couple on the screen kissing.
But its different.
The way the couples in those shows you see on tv,
and the ones you watch on the Disney movies are different.


Photobucket


The kisses you see on tv are normally lust related kisses,
where one thing leads to another.
Unlike the ones you watch in the Disney shows,
where those kisses are kisses of true love,
where the princess always get their happy ending and
lives happily ever after.


Photobucket


Why can't reality be as easy as that?
Why was my first kiss shared with someone who didn't love me the way
Prince Charming loves his Princess?
Why was my first kiss not even memorable?
WHY.

2:51:00 PM, Peranakan Museum Part 4 Final. :)
Friday, December 4

MynameisQUE;


As Singapore is a multi racial country, we as Singaporeans should try to learn
and understand the other cultures and ethnic groups in Singapore.
This is vital as racial harmony in Singapore is very important.
In the1990s we used to have racial riots in Singapore.



Look at us now, we mix and get to know people of different races and
religions, make friends with one another and altogether,
all of us are one big family as Singaporeans.
Not many of us know about the Peranakan culture, am I right?




So here’s an opportunity to know more.
It doesn’t matter whether the peranakan festival is over yet or not.
As long as you love Singapore and you want us to maintain this racial harmony,
NEVER stop learning about other cultures.

Ultimately, Knowledge is Power.

Opening hours:

Monday: 1pm to 7pm
Tuesday to Sunday: 9.30am – 7pm (to 9 pm on Fridays)

Here's how to get to the PERANAKAN MUSEUM;

Psst! Here's what PM Lee said during the NDP rally 2009;
He urged Singaporeans never to forget what being a Singaporean means –
that is not just tolerating other groups, but opening their hearts to all.

SINGAPORE, YOU HAVE FINALLY MADE THE RIGHT
CHOICE! ♥

Charles 'Stitch' Wong is finally out people!


I used to like Charles, cos i think he's multi talented,
but compared to the rest, I think he is the weakest among the 4.
Last week, i was anticipating him to be eliminated.
but NO!
Singapore Idol with their gimmicks up that sleeve!



I even started this hastag on twitter cos i saw many people
not really favouring Charle's performance.
Thank you everybody for using the hashtag!
Eventhough it wasnt really successful but at least,
the objective of my hashtag met.

8:01:00 PM, A reply to you.
Wednesday, December 2

MynameisQUE;

I’ve read the blog post that you wrote about me.
So here’s what I’ve gotta say.

I know how it feels to have someone you love being snatched away just like that
by a girl that you know. I’ve been in that situation once and
it’s an experience that I will never ever be able to forget.

Stop crying for that man you love.
He doesn’t deserve your tears, my dear girl.
You know nothing about love. In fact, not even me.
You’re still young. You haven’t even finished your secondary school education.
A guy who really loves a girl wouldn’t ever use her to satisfy his sexual needs.
That’s what I believe in.
I know that you just want to be loved and that one of the
ways you show the guy that you really love him is by giving him everything,
but you’re wrong.

The way guys and girls see a relationship is different.
Guys who are immature and who are not serious in a relationship would have the idea that LUST = LOVE.
Those men you meet, they don’t want LOVE,
but they want LUST.
That’s not what I’m looking for, and
I hope it isn’t what you are looking for either.
Of course it’s not fair to hastily generalize men to say that
they all want lust, but most are like that.
It’d be nice to finally meet a man who respects women.



It’s also not fair to always blame men.
We girls know that most guys are only in for lust, but we CHOOSE not to believe,
and start convincing ourselves that “HE IS THE ONE”.
We women are soft hearted that we become weak and
lose our minds just because of a guy.
Even though the guy is hurting us, we choose to carry on
loving him and allow him to take advantage of our
weakness and we get hurt!
When we get hurt,
WE BLAME IT ON THE GUY, BUT NOT OURSELVES.


We women have one problem, WE TRUST TOO EASILY.
We love them so much that we trust them not to hurt us.
That is our mistake and has always been our mistake.
We ought to change that.
We shouldn’t trust someone just after ONE MONTH of getting to know someone.

TRUST HAS TO BE EARNED OVER A PERIOD OF TIME.

Not just simply given away just like that.
Most men are liars so stop believing them fully.
Take everything they say with a pinch of salt.


Because most guys are liars, cowards, selfish, jerks, mofos, retards, immature, childish, lazybums, sweet talkers and etc….
(other negative adjectives MUAHAHAHA!)

If you think I’m truly happy, you are wrong. You know nothing about how I feel.

Really.

P.S: Stop giving your body away just like that.
Those guys DON’T love you.
They just wanna make use of you and have fun.
You don’t want people to see you as someone cheap, don’t you?
And another thing, don’t you find it stupid to be in a relationship with someone,
and then have other TTMs?
I mean, a relationship should be between 2 people.
That was your mistake. He wasn’t happy with you and your TTMs.
Well my dear, I think you’re still immature and you don’t really know what a real relationship is. If you’re not ready to commit, then DON’T.
Stop giving love, relationships and other girls a bad name.

Oh well, its not really my problem heh? *

3:15:00 PM, Believability
Monday, November 30

MynameisQUE;

Sometimes, people tell me things and

I will simply CHOOSE not to believe it or I would be very skeptical of it.

Now I know why and I think it’d be interesting to share with you abit.

The 3 Vs that affect believability
Verbal: 7%
Verbal is the message. The words you say.

Vocal: 38%
Vocal refers to the tonality. Pitch, rhythm and pace of speech.

Visual: 55%
Visual refers to what people see, your expressions and body language.

As you can see, visuals take up the most percentage of believability.
Visuals would include, body language, facial expressions,
touch, the way you act and dress and etc.


Why?



Mainly because
WORDS CAN LIE, but not body language.
Especially facial expressions.
This is because we don’t really have much
control of our facial expressions and its kinda honest.



Also, the way one dresses is very important.
Yaya, I know you're not supposed to stereotype people and all that,
but you know there's no running away from first impressions.


Take this for example.

If this 3 teenagers were to tell you that they are the top students for some examinations,
WILL YOU BELIEVE THEM?
Judging from the way they dress and act?
Photobucket


I bet you won't.
Why? Because visuals are VERY powerful.
Don't you agree?


But, if this man were to tell you that
he is a graduate from a well known university.
Will you believe him?
Photobucket

I bet you will.
Agreed?


P.S:Anddd the key ingredient to an effective communication between a couple is,

BELIEVABILITY! :P

SO BOYS, LESS TALK AND MORE ACTION PLEASE. :)
Don't just tell us you love us, show it.

Again, I leave you something to ponder on.

Sunday, November 29, 2009 at 10:00pm

SYNOPSIS:
The Peranakan Association proudly presents a new, groundbreaking contemporary Peranakan play, BEDROOMS, as a part of the Association’s Peranakan Festival. Presented in four stark segments each set in a bedroom, Bedrooms explores a young girl’s life choices as she enters a marriage in 1960s Singapore, just after the establishment of the Women’s Charter, and at the sunset of the Peranakan golden age. By the end of the play, she will have to make an important decision about her life and relationships.

For the first time in Singapore a play will be staged in two language versions. The Baba Malay version, helmed by up and coming director Zizi Azah, has a cast comprising four outstanding practitioners of Pernakan theatre: G T Lye, Mabel Lee, Cynthia Lee and Frederick Soh.

The English version, directed by Alvin Tay, the celebrated co-founder of theatre company The Necessary Stage, and a Peranakan himself, stars theatre and television luminaries Nora Samosir, Neo Swee Lin, Anna Belle Francis and Julian Hee.


BEDROOMS is a work by new playwright Adrian Koh.

2:57:00 PM, Big Baba Blogout 2009 Part 2

MynameisQUE;

Many people ask me why I'm wasting my time blogging.
Many people ask me why I even bother to blog.

I'm still new to blogging, and I know I am nothing close to the
popular bloggers that you know.
I don't have to name them cos I know you already have
those names popping on your minds.
Blogging is awesome because I like to write.
I like to express my feelings, my thoughts, my opinions through writing.
I used to write in my diary alot, ever since I was young,
but technology is more advanced now, we even have online diaries like
blogs to record our daily life and experiences.


Also, I LOVE THE FREEBIES THAT WE BLOGGERS GET!
Yes, we are very much freeloaders, typical Singaporeans.
To date, I've won tickets from Nuffnang to watch movies
such as Julie and Julia and the Ugly Truth.


When I went for the Peranakan Museum Big Babablogout event,
i got freebies too, which were proudly sponsored by
Nivea-Live Your Beauty!

"They say my lip gloss is cool
My lip gloss be popping
I'm standing at my locker
And all the boys keep stopping"

I'm very skeptical about the product on top
but who cares. ITS FREE!


Thank youuuuu Nivea for the free stuff!
